Are you planning to get a new grill for your home, community, or business in 2023? If so, how will you decide which one to buy? Well, if this is the year you're committed to purchasing a grill that will stand the test of time, consider the extensive range of high-quality liquid propane and natural gas PGS grills from AEI Corporation.

We’ve been manufacturing safe, robust grills for over 50 years that are user-friendly for beginners but packed with features to satisfy experienced chefs. Our grills aren’t just used on countless residential patios but also serve as top-notch cooking solutions at golf clubs, bed-and-breakfasts, sailing clubs, restaurants, apartments, and condos worldwide.

With three distinct grill lines catering to everyone from casual backyard cooks to demanding professional chefs, you’ll definitely find a model that matches your specific grilling needs. Choosing a new grill becomes a delightful experience when you explore the wide selection of PGS grills, each offering a comprehensive list of the most popular grill features.

PGS Legacy Grills

Legacy grills are ideal for the neighborhood chef but also capable of handling larger events. Whether you're cooking a few burgers for your family or hosting a big bash for the whole neighborhood, there's a Legacy grill that fits perfectly. All of them are made of stainless steel with a rotisserie option. The cooking system ensures even heat distribution and prevents flare-ups. All Legacy grills are available in both liquid propane and natural gas versions.

• The S27 Newport is the smallest Legacy grill, but its performance is anything but small. With two burners delivering 45,000 BTUs and a 540-square-inch grilling surface, it can produce mouth-watering steaks, chicken, and veggies just like its larger counterparts.
• The S36 Pacifica adds a third burner and outputs 67,000 BTUs. Its 720-square-inch cooking area makes it perfect for feeding a larger group.
• The S48 Big Sur is the largest in the Legacy series, featuring four 304-grade stainless steel burners and a standard rotisserie kit (optional on other Legacy grills). It can transform your patio into the neighborhood hub for delicious barbecue and handle large gatherings effortlessly.

All Legacy models come with hassle-free electronic ignition and offer the PGS "no compromise" warranty with lifetime coverage on many components.

PGS A-Series Grills

A-Series grills boast rugged permanent mold cast aluminum with stainless steel internal parts. They're easy to maintain and simple to operate. Like all PGS grills, they come with the same "no compromise" warranty. Flexible temperature control makes it easy to achieve the perfect level of doneness every time.

• The A30 grill churns out 30,000 BTUs across a 330-square-inch cooking surface and also includes a 121-square-inch warming area. Despite its compact size, this unit can grill, roast, and sauté as effectively as larger models.
• The A40 grill generates 40,000 BTUs from a 430 stainless steel "H" burner and features two stainless steel foldable side shelves, turning any location into a welcoming grilling spot.

A-Series grills incorporate PGS's renowned ceramic "Moon Rok" briquettes, which ensure even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface.

PGS T-Series Grills

T-Series grills are the commercial line from PGS. You'll find them in places like resorts and timeshare properties, but they're also great for community use in apartments and condos. Designed to cater to the needs of demanding chefs, they also suit a diverse range of residents with varying grilling skills.

A key safety feature of the T-Series is the FuelStop 60-minute gas-flow shutoff timer, which automatically turns the grill off after an hour of use, preventing wastage and potential hazards. They also include theft-proof knobs and laser-etched instructions.

• The T-30 grill features a cast-aluminum housing with stainless steel cooking grids. Its two stainless steel burners generate 30,000 BTU over a 330-square-inch surface.
• The T-40 grill is a more powerful version with 40,000 BTUs and a 434-square-inch surface. Both the T-30 and T-40 grills are great as pedestal-mounted units and can fit multiple grills in one area to allow simultaneous cooking for different families.
• The S27T grill is a stainless steel grill loaded with features such as anti-theft knobs, a side-mounted heat indicator, and permanent instructions on a laser-etched control panel. It delivers 45,000 BTUs over a 504-square-inch cooking surface.
• The S36T grill combines the stainless steel durability and features of the S27T with even more grilling power. It provides 67,000 BTUs distributed over a 720-square-inch cooking surface for grilling and roasting on a scale that can keep up with demand.
• The S48T grill is the largest in the T-Series, featuring 960 square inches of cooking surface heated by 90,000 BTUs. It comes with 304 stainless steel cooking grids and a flip-up stainless steel grate for easy cleaning.

All T-Series grills come with a one-year parts replacement warranty. They are durable grills available in both liquid propane and natural gas versions, with various convenient mounting options.

Grill Mounting Options to Suit Your Needs

Your PGS grill can be either portable (if it's a propane grill) or permanently mounted (natural gas or propane grills), depending on your cooking space, fuel source, and requirements. We offer several mounting options to set up your grill exactly as you desire.

• Pedestal mounts. These are discreet and take up little space but are virtually impossible to knock over. They work well for smaller grills powered by natural gas.
• Grill carts. If you use propane tanks and want to move the grill around your cooking area or even store it away, this is the best choice. These carts on wheels also provide additional storage space.
• Prefabricated grill islands, like the Gensun Modano Series BBQ Island. These turn your grill into a versatile and dynamic cooking station. Some are custom-built to accommodate PGS grills. Some are permanently installed while others are semi-mobile. Their enclosures provide cooling, heating, and warming as well as storage.
• Outdoor countertops. Some grill owners prefer to customize their grilling area with an outdoor countertop. By integrating the grill directly, you can set up a cooking station however you like.

Easier Shopping with the PGS Grill Selection

If you're looking to buy a new grill in 2023, researching the products and making a choice can be simpler than you might expect. The extensive PGS line of grills has options for everyone from casual backyard cooks to professional chefs to property managers of apartment buildings or other multi-family communities. If you're the one responsible for this year’s outdoor cooking setup, browsing through these options will likely solve your dilemma.
